LABOR ORGANIZATIONS.

The New York Sun summarizes its
reports from t~wenty.one leading cities Of
the country concerning the labor move
ment during the past year. In few
places has the labor movement really
succeeded; in few has it really failed.
In most it has met with varying success,
winning many strikes, but losing the
great strikes on which so much depended.
The labor unions seem to have emerged
from the years work more triumphantly
than the Knights of Labor. The latter
organization is everywhere admitted to
have increased in numbers but almost
everywhere comes the suggestion that
the influence of the order has not in.
creased proportionately. Ruskin speak.
ing Of the prospects of labor organiza.
tions in England says: "If we once can
get q sufficient quantity of honesty in
our captains, the organization of labor 10
easy and will develop itself without
quarrel or difficulty; but if we cannot
get honesty in our captains, the organi.
zation of labor is forevermore impos.
sible." This is true Of labor ~organiza.
tions in this country and all other organ
i~zations for that matter.

WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 2. 1887
A WARRINGTON MOB.

A News Washington special says: All
agree in saying that the imposition on
the Chinese Minister at his grand ball
was a shame. About 400 invitations
were issued, and over 1900 people made
their way into the Stewart Castle.
Dancing was impossible because OF the
awful crush. 1t was not a ball, but a
well.dressed mob. The cloak rooms were
a scene al confusion, and the dressing.
room was SO jammed that the stairway
was crowded for hours with ladies trying
to reach or turn from it. There was so
much confusion that the ladies lost their
wraps and gentlemen their overcoats,
and had to send to the Legation in the
morning to see if they could not be re-
covered. In the drawing rooms, which
were jammed with people, many hand
some ornaments were broken and Others
are missing, but the most disgraceful scene
was in the dining.room, which was taken
possession of early in the evening, as
soon as the doors were opened, by a
well-dressed mob, and occupied until the
tables were cleared.
Ben Perley Poore says there never was
anything like it; that there was never
anything so disgraceful in the history OF
Washington society. OF the l,50O peo-
pie who were in the house only 200 per-
sons reached the dinlng.room, and they
remained there. Some who wanted to
get out were unable to do SO. One SEN
ator who passed in early in the evening
relates that after seating his vile he
went to the table to get her some refresh
ments, but was not able to return to her
because of the jam, and he did not see
her again for two hours. The descrip-
ton Of the affair which Chang Yen Hoon
will send to his Government would be
interesting, as bearing IN the question
whether +" civilization is a failure"

AN AWKWARD SEEM T..

Kansas City Star: The President and
Mrs. Cleveland had fairly seated them
selves in their pew when a gentleman
and lady, strangers, entered and were
given the pew directly in front of the
President. The stranger kept quiet un-
til DR.. Sunderland opened the sermon,
when he arose and made an effort to re-
move his heavy overcoat. The stranger
was evidently nervous in the presence of
the Chief Magistrate and his pretty
bride, and while tugging with his over
coat was securing a good look at the dis
tinguished couple behind him. So alb.
stracted was he that his Prince Albert
coat adhered to and came off with the
overcoat, and the man stood in the pres.
ence Of the congregation in his shirt
sleeves. The situation was discovered
by everybody at the same moment. and
q litter ran through the congregation,
which gradually developed into a laugh,
when the boys near the door took in the
scene. The President smiled broadly,
while Mrs. Cleveland concealed her grins
behind her handkerchief. The minister
became so affected that he paused to
dilute his smile with a glass Of water.
1t was such a sudden and unusual scene
that everybody was convulsed. The
strangers vile hastily sprang to his
relief, and they both struggled painfully
to skin the overcoat off the undercoat,
In this act several failures were made,
until the President bravely reached
across the pew and held to n of the
sleeves, while the gentleman and lady
tugged until the two coats were separ
ated. The stranger quickly put OF his
uudercoat and quietness was restored.

Speaking Of General Sherman's absent
mindedness, an old soldier said the other
day: "An incident happened on Pine
Mountain, Ca, the evening that General
Sherman sent his famous dispatch, Hold
the fort, l am coming to A~llatoona,
October s., 1864. The General received
a fresh cigar from some one, cigars being
scarce, and began to shout for a light.
Lieut.. j. Clarence Peck, Of General
Whittaker's staff, was the fortunate pos
SCISSOR Of a freshly lighted cigar, and he
politely handed it to General Sherman,
who lit his own cigar and then deliber'
ately threw the Lieutensnt's cigar away.
A broad smile displayed itself all around
The General was thinking OF those mill.
ion rations at Allatoona, but it didn't
appease the disgust of the Lieutenant.

Little Mabel, 5 years old. Is not so

CELEBRITY Or DEATH"
The Demands of the Con-
demned Anarchists.
THEY DO NOT ASK FOR MERCY.
"rhe Powers that Be May Murder,
But Cannot Legally Punish
Them"
OF the Same Opinion Still.

CHICAGO, November -George Engel,
Louis Lingg and Adolph Fisher, of the
group OF condemned Anarchists, have
written open letters TO Governor
Ogiesby, refusing any Communication OF
sentence short of liberty, and declaring
unaoated faith in the principles of an
archy. Their letters are very long, and
consist mainly of an exposition OF their
well known ideas re- arding the social
conditions existing and the necessity for
remedies. They declare in substance,
that they are not guilty of any Urlme;
that they have exercised the right of
Tree speech, free thought and free as
semDlsge, as guaranteed by the COnsti-
tutlou, ana have criticised exist
ing evils and succOred their fell
low citizens with their advice
as to the right of every honest citizen.
Their e1perienC e, they say has eradi-
Gated their belief of equal rights of
poor and rich. and the action OF public
officers, police and militia, have pro-
duced the belief that the present con-
ditions cannot last long. Not being
conscious of any guilt, they say: Tine
powers that be may murder, but can
| not legally punish them" and protest
dSdlu6l u VI GcLAGCACC,
demanding their liberty or death.
Fisher, III his letter, declares, among
other things, that If he is held respons
ible for the death of the police
men at the Haymarket, every
abolitlonist could have been held
responsible for the deeds of John
Brown; therefore, he could not ask or
accept mercy" without lowering him
| self in his own estimation He asks If
defaming and representing advocates
and teachings OF social reconstruction
Will do any good, and as an answer
quotes an excerpt from Benjamin
Franklin essay, Rules TOR reducing &
great empire to small one" delivered
to the English government in 1176, in
which Franklin says If Il few OF the
"fsctious de1nagogues should be
hanged, tbe blood Of the martyrs shall

pose: that is, your own ruin"

The Pacific Coast.

SAN Francisco, November 1.-The
steamer AuStraJju arrived from Homo
lulu. to-day, but brought little add
tionaI information regarding Hawaiian
or Samoan affairs, other than the fact
that John NJ. Kapena. late minister of
finance in the GIBSON cabiner OF Hawai-,
is dead. Among the arrivals by the

late OF the Hawaiian navy. The man

mander, viii shortly be sold at Homo
lulu TO the highest bidder.
1t is stated on good authority that
the agents OF the Pacific Mail Company
are to make another cut in freight and
passenger rates on the Panama line.
They have been considering the advisa
bility of making a reduction since the
Spanish Central American Company
met their rates. Although the schedules
of both lines are actually the SAM, less
duty is collected by the Central Auneri-
can government Oh merchandise i'm
ported by the Del Campo steamers than
by the Pacific Mail. 1t is TO overcome
the effect of this discrimination thai
the Pacifi. Mail will revise its schedule.
On the other hand, the agents of the
Del Campo have announced their in
tention OF meeting any rate the Pacific
Mail Company can possibly make and
still preserve the difference III duty as
an lnduceme..J to shippers.
